(Jan. 30, 2012) – With the introduction of the Washington State Preservation of Liberty Act, Evergreen State legislators have the opportunity to exercise their right and duty, and interpose on behalf of their citizens to halt a deliberate, palpable, and dangerous exercise of federal power.
Five Washington state representatives introduced HB 2759 on Tuesday. The bill condemns the unlawful...

Few people have heard of ACTA, or the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement, but the provisions in the agreement are just as pernicious as anything we saw in SOPA. Worse, the agreement spans virtually all of the countries in the developed world, including all of the EU, the United States,…

From the linked article -
“First, Congress considered the National Defense Authorization Act, sections of which gave the President the authority to use the military to arrest and indefinitely detain Americans without trial or charge. The language was revised because of strong condemnation from the American people. But now a new bill has emerged that poses yet another threat...

angeliccacophony:
The last link I provided “mysteriously” disappeared. I think it’s time we stop fucking about.
This bill would give the US government the power to strip Americans of their citizenship without being convicted of being “hostile” against the United States. In other words, you can be stripped of your nationality for “engaging in, or purposefully and materially supporting,...

PIPA is the new SOPA →
abakkus:
Everyone’s hearing that SOPA’s probably not going to pass, and that’s great. But there’s more than SOPA, there’s PIPA too, and it’s just as bad.
“But bills often come in pairs, and SOPA’s twin in the U.S. Senate is the Protect IP Act, or PIPA. Both bills threaten to rip apart the fabric of the Internet, compromise the planet’s digital security and open the doors for China-class...

Senate Bill S.1867 - National Defense...
I would just like to inform everyone that there is a bill senate is due to vote on about your rights. If it passes, it will bring the war upon our doorstep. It will allow the Department of Homeland Security to declare anywhere in the US a battlefield, where the military can arrest and detain terrorists in the US. The DHS put out a video, “Anyone, Anytime, Anywhere: Understanding the Threat...

itsallgone:
Just thirteen days ago I was eight months pregnant.
Everyone loved rubbing my belly.
I even wore my “Baby On Board” shirt over my gigantic stomach.
I was in a small group, assembled away from the massive crowd.
All we did was stand arm in arm, chanting, cheering, and laughing.
A large group of officers approached. They were headed for the larger crowds.
We...

The shocking truth about the crackdown on Occupy →
lovearth:
“I noticed that rightwing pundits and politicians on the TV shows on which I was appearing were all on-message against OWS. Journalist Chris Hayes reported on a leaked memo that revealed lobbyists vying for an $850,000 contract to smear Occupy. Message coordination of this kind is impossible without a full-court press at the top. This was clearly not simply a case of a freaked-out...
